RUYING A HUSBAND.

When African slavery was abolished
everybody supposed that the right to
deal in human beings as chattel prop
erty was abolished with it. but this is
mistake. At least that is the view taken
of it by the New York supreme court in
case where the purchase of one
wOman'S husband by another woman
was held valid. 1t is strange story as
well as sad commentary on civiliza-
ton which permits such things. A
young lady who was worth in the neigh
bOrhO0d of million of dollars became
infatuated with a married man. She
wanted to marry him and he wanted to
marry her. The obstacle in the way
was the prior claim held by the mans
wife on him. In a remarkably business
like manner the wealthy young lady
went to the impecuniOuS married woman
and wanted to know how much she
would take for her husband. The mar
ried woman was Shrewd enough to
put fictitious valuation OH the worth
less husband and asked 100000 cash.
The price staggered the young lady at
first, but after certain negotiations the
trade was concluded and the purchase
made for $4,000 and the expenses of a
divorce suit. The married woman left
New York for Illinois, where divorces
are to be had dirt cheap, and in a short
time the sacred bond of matrimOny was
severed by district judge, who draws
salary from the Illinois state treasury
for doing this kind of business. Then
the wealthy young lady married the
man she had bought from the other
woman and is now swimming around
on top of the social cream pot in the me-
trop0lis. The courts recognize the
transaction as a valid one and there is
nobody to negative it. And yet that
such things can occur in a Christian
land and under the sanction of law is a
disgrace to our civilization.

Her tender feet no longer tread life's ways:

So short time, are folded We were wed
Meseemeth but fieeting summer day;
And she is gone. and life's an empty thing
Yet do know-the while my heart is sore,
The while hot tears course slowly down my

Though veiled sorrow sits my hearth beside
That some day life will be a joy once more;
That some day time will heal; will bid me
seek
Another love, and WOO another bride.

Her sweet young face, with its fair girlish
brow,
Her soft brown hair, unlined, unchanged,

In which we loved; yet quivering from the

'Tis the worst part, my dear; if could
With shattered heart my whole life long, 1

Out of my life; must all, then, be forlorn!

Beyond the stars that time will bring me

Let me believe that all thou dost is best,
Nor let her suffer when my sufferings cease

ALL HERE.

''Where are our railroad commission
ers?" is conundrum passing the rounds
of the state press. The railroad COM
missioners are still in Office. Whether
their prolonged silence and inactivity
is the result of the prolonged hot
spell, Or whether it is because there
has been nothing for them to do, we
are unable to say. But of one thing
our state exchanges may rest assured,
the railroad commissioners are still
in Office. They are not lost. The inter-
state commerce law and the cut rate
war among the railroads have relieved
the state commissioners of good deal
of work. In fact it has always been a
question in the minds of a great many
people whether the services of railway
commission were ever sufficient to JUS
tify the expense of supporting one. But
as long as the Office of railway commits
siOner is continued, there will be no
difficulty in finding somebody to draw
the salary, whether there is any work to
be done or not.

DEAD-HEAD SYSTEM.

The annual meeting of the National
Editorial association, which has been
called to meet at Denver Dec. 6, has
been postponed. In circular issued
by the officers of the association the
postponement was on account of the
difficulty of perfecting satisfactory ar
rangements with the railroad companies
for transportation, and that meeting
would be held hereafter, at time and
place to be fixed by the executive COM
mittee. Without any definite informa-
ton we are unable to state what az
rangements the railroads proposed to
make. But we take it for granted that
the railroads did not want to charge
the delegates more than they are
in the habit of charging other
people. If such was the case the
arrangements ought TO have been salts
factory. 1t is about time that our edi-
torial brethren were getting it out of
their heads that they are entitled TO be
dead-headed over all transportation
lines. One of the principal benefits of
the interstate commerce law was that it
St. Paul daily globe., 1887-08-22

broke up the dead-head system, and
there was no department of business
life more benefited than journalism.
The dead-head system had most
demoralizing effect on the newspaper
profession. 1t had a tendency to destroy
the independence of the press and to
make the members of the profession
subservient tools of corporations. 1t
did not do so in every case, nor even in a
majority Of cases, but it did do it in too
many instances. The reputation of the
profession suffered in consequence of
it. 1t is therefore all the more humili-
ating that the officers of the national
association should have announced
pOstponement of the annual meeting
accompanied with an intimation that
the postponement was made because
the delegates were not to be dead
headed. If the association can not be
kept up on the plan of paying its own
way it had better be dissolved.

NORTHWESTERN GROWTH.

Nothing better illustrates the phe-
nOmenal growth of the Northwest than
an interesting comparison TO be embOd-
led in the forthcoming annual report to
be made to the stockholders of the Man.
itoba railroad by the management,
Eight years in the slow going and con-
Servatiye East would be but span, and
would contain the record of little beyond
the usual routine. In the West the
same space Of time contains possibilities
and witnesses achievements which may
well aStound all not accustomed to West
ern enterprise. Just eight years ago,
for instance. when the Manitoba road
came under its present administration
it carried for the year 1879 only 100000
bushels of wheat -
; 1t will be shown in the forthcoming
report that its shipments during the
present year will reach 35,000,000 BUSH
els. over seventeen times more than the
road handled only eight years ago.
When the amount of additional land
that would have to be cultivated to pro-
duce this wonderful difference is taken
into consideration it will be readily
seen that the settlement of the North
west is progressing at even more rapid
rate than had been supposed. And
when it is further reflected that, though
the rate of immigration shows no evi-
dence of lessening, there is more than
enough room to accommodate all COM
ers for many years yet, there will be no
difficulty in cOnceding that the roseate
anticipatiOns of those who have earned
the title of ''boOmerS" possess Substan-
tial foundation in fact.
This enormous increase to the pro-
ductive and consuming capacity of the
Northwest is something which the Twin
Cities can view with unalloyed Satisfac-
ton, for as the enHepot to the vast en-
pire whose fertility seems to be mex
haustible it means thas their continued
progress and prosperity are assured.
